I need help from all you artistic types out there!
Excellent advice Daniel..... and I would add that the shirt (and image) should be shot in natural daylight..... turn your camera's setting to Manual, which will stop the flash from firing.

I was lucky enough to pick them up for around a $100 several years ago. Today, they are probably closer to $200. SIL...- Kay O'Hara

Nothing but Seamed Stockings

Office or School hair styles?
Kaela, anoother little trick that may be useful with your rolls..... my great-grandmother wore side rolls daily, unfortunately, her hair was extremely fine, and while back-combing is truly necessary for many vintage dos, she opted for another alternative.
